Simona Halep (32 years old) received important news regarding her participation in the Wimbledon Grand Slam tournament with the help of a wildcard.
The organizers at Wimbledon announced on Wednesday the list of players directly admitted to the main draw, as well as those in the qualifiers, and Simona Halep is not included in either.
The press in the United States delivers bad news for Simona Halep regarding her participation at the All England Club with a wildcard. American journalists claim that the chances of Simona receiving a wildcard are slim, considering the doping scandal she was involved in.
Emma Raducanu, Angelique Kerber, or Venus Williams are players favored with high chances of receiving an invitation to the main draw at Wimbledon.
"It is unlikely that Simona Halep will receive a wildcard for Wimbledon. This is due to the stance that the organizers took around Maria Sharapova (note: in 2017). Despite the innocence she claimed, Halep will likely receive the same treatment.
As a result, the chances are slim, and without a wildcard, it is unlikely that Simona Halep will play at Wimbledon," writes the website tennisuptodate.com.
Simona Halep won Wimbledon in 2019.
